Ha!

To all those who questioned my sanity when I made all those remarks about
MicroSoft's Windows 2000 print ad campaign (featuring the BSOD), check out
what Bob Lewis has to say in this week's IS Survival Guide:

http://www.infoworld.com/articles/op/xml/01/04/30/010430oplewis.xml

"* Sometimes the brand police need to be more alert. Who on earth came up
with Microsoft's ad campaign for Windows 2000?

Filling half the ad with a Windows 95 Blue Screen of Death does show a key
benefit of Windows 2000. But doesn't this do just a wee bit o' damage to
Microsoft's overall image?"
